Broken toe is a common injury. Toe injury symptoms include pain, swelling, movement restriction and bruising on skin of the broken toe. The patient's ability to walk may be severely restricted. Slight non-displaced fracture is expected to heal in 6-8 weeks with no residual damage. Displaced fracture needs reduction and fixation. Severe fracture, especially of the big toe, may require surgical treatment.
